Wisconsin Football season is finally upon us! On Saturday, September 5th, the 20th ranked Badgers will take on #3 Alabama in Arlington, Texas. The game will be featured on ESPN’s College Game Day, and should have a massive viewing audience. Alabama is currently 10-point Vegas favorites.
Wisconsin Badgers
After that, Wisconsin faces 3 non-conference cheese puffs before they start their Big 10 play at home against Iowa. So I guess its 4 straight cheese puffs. The only two tough games they play on their 2015 Big 10 schedule are at Nebraska, and at Minnesota (Yes, I’m serious). Wisconsin lucked out by avoiding the Big 10 East top guns for a second straight year.
While it all looks pretty straight forward, there are a number of questions that still have to be answered. Will Corey Clement follow in Melvin Gordon’s footsteps and contend for the Heisman Trophy? Will Wisconsin win the Big 10 West? Can Joel Stave finally breakthrough? And most importantly, what bowl game will the Badgers head to this year?
But don’t worry. Badger of Honor writers Jon Rzepecki, Jim Oxley, Taylor Johnson, Erik Buchinger, and I (Rayan Vatti) will each take a crack at predicting the answers to each of those questions. Each slide has a different question on it, so it will be presented in round table format. If you disagree with anything we say, feel free to comment down below.
